Quoting Linus:
I do think that it would be a good idea to very expressly document
the fact that it's not that the user access itself is unsafe. I do
agree that things like "get_user()" want to be protected, but not
because of any direct bugs or problems with get_user() and friends,
but simply because get_user() is an excellent source of a pointer
that is obviously controlled from a potentially attacking user
space. So it's a prime candidate for then finding _subsequent_
accesses that can then be used to perturb the cache.
Unlike the __get_user() case get_user() includes the address limit check
near the pointer de-reference. With that locality the speculation can be
mitigated with pointer narrowing rather than a barrier, i.e.
array_index_nospec(). Where the narrowing is performed by:
cmp %limit, %ptr
sbb %mask, %mask
and %mask, %ptr
With respect to speculation the value of %ptr is either less than %limit
or NULL.

__uaccess_begin_nospec() covers __get_user() and copy_from_iter() where the
limit check is far away from the user pointer de-reference. In those cases
a barrier_nospec() prevents speculation with a potential pointer to
privileged memory. uaccess_try_nospec covers get_user_try.

For __get_user() paths, do not allow the kernel to speculate on the value
of a user controlled pointer. In addition to the 'stac' instruction for
Supervisor Mode Access Protection (SMAP), a barrier_nospec() causes the
access_ok() result to resolve in the pipeline before the CPU might take any
speculative action on the pointer value. Given the cost of 'stac' the
speculation barrier is placed after 'stac' to hopefully overlap the cost of
disabling SMAP with the cost of flushing the instruction pipeline.
Since __get_user is a major kernel interface that deals with user
controlled pointers, the __uaccess_begin_nospec() mechanism will prevent
speculative execution past an access_ok() permission check. While
speculative execution past access_ok() is not enough to lead to a kernel
memory leak, it is a necessary precondition.
To be clear, __uaccess_begin_nospec() is addressing a class of potential
problems near __get_user() usages.
Note, that while the barrier_nospec() in __uaccess_begin_nospec() is used
to protect __get_user(), pointer masking similar to array_index_nospec()
will be used for get_user() since it incorporates a bounds check near the
usage.
uaccess_try_nospec provides the same mechanism for get_user_try.

Rename the open coded form of this instruction sequence from
rdtsc_ordered() into a generic barrier primitive, barrier_nospec().
One of the mitigations for Spectre variant1 vulnerabilities is to fence
speculative execution after successfully validating a bounds check. I.e.
force the result of a bounds check to resolve in the instruction pipeline
to ensure speculative execution honors that result before potentially
operating on out-of-bounds data.

array_index_nospec() is proposed as a generic mechanism to mitigate
against Spectre-variant-1 attacks, i.e. an attack that bypasses boundary
checks via speculative execution. The array_index_nospec()
implementation is expected to be safe for current generation CPUs across
multiple architectures (ARM, x86).
Based on an original implementation by Linus Torvalds, tweaked to remove
speculative flows by Alexei Starovoitov, and tweaked again by Linus to
introduce an x86 assembly implementation for the mask generation.

The TS_COMPAT bit is very hot and is accessed from code paths that mostly
also touch thread_info::flags. Move it into struct thread_info to improve
cache locality.
The only reason it was in thread_struct is that there was a brief period
during which arch-specific fields were not allowed in struct thread_info.
Linus suggested further changing:
ti->status &= ~(TS_COMPAT|TS_I386_REGS_POKED);
to:
if (unlikely(ti->status & (TS_COMPAT|TS_I386_REGS_POKED)))
ti->status &= ~(TS_COMPAT|TS_I386_REGS_POKED);
on the theory that frequently dirtying the cacheline even in pure 64-bit
code that never needs to modify status hurts performance. That could be a
reasonable followup patch, but I suspect it matters less on top of this
patch.

Since commit 92a0f81d89 ("x86/cpu_entry_area: Move it out of the
fixmap"), i386's CPU_ENTRY_AREA has been mapped to the memory area just
below FIXADDR_START. But already immediately before FIXADDR_START is the
FIX_BTMAP area, which means that early_ioremap can collide with the entry
area.
It's especially bad on PAE where FIX_BTMAP_BEGIN gets aligned to exactly
match CPU_ENTRY_AREA_BASE, so the first early_ioremap slot clobbers the
IDT and causes interrupts during early boot to reset the system.
The overlap wasn't a problem before the CPU entry area was introduced,
as the fixmap has classically been preceded by the pkmap or vmalloc
areas, neither of which is used until early_ioremap is out of the
picture.
Relocate CPU_ENTRY_AREA to below FIX_BTMAP, not just below the permanent
fixmap area.

Currently objtool requires all retpolines to be:
a) patched in with alternatives; and
b) annotated with ANNOTATE_NOSPEC_ALTERNATIVE.
If you forget to do both of the above, objtool segfaults trying to
dereference a NULL 'insn->call_dest' pointer.
Avoid that situation and print a more helpful error message:
quirks.o: warning: objtool: efi_delete_dummy_variable()+0x99: unsupported intra-function call
quirks.o: warning: objtool: If this is a retpoline, please patch it in with alternatives and annotate it with ANNOTATE_NOSPEC_ALTERNATIVE.
Future improvements can be made to make objtool smarter with respect to
retpolines, but this is a good incremental improvement for now.

We want to expose the hardware features simply in /proc/cpuinfo as "ibrs",
"ibpb" and "stibp". Since AMD has separate CPUID bits for those, use them
as the user-visible bits.
When the Intel SPEC_CTRL bit is set which indicates both IBRS and IBPB
capability, set those (AMD) bits accordingly. Likewise if the Intel STIBP
bit is set, set the AMD STIBP that's used for the generic hardware
capability.
Hide the rest from /proc/cpuinfo by putting "" in the comments. Including
RETPOLINE and RETPOLINE_AMD which shouldn't be visible there. There are
patches to make the sysfs vulnerabilities information non-readable by
non-root, and the same should apply to all information about which
mitigations are actually in use. Those *shouldn't* appear in /proc/cpuinfo.
The feature bit for whether IBPB is actually used, which is needed for
ALTERNATIVEs, is renamed to X86_FEATURE_USE_IBPB.

The hrtimer interrupt code contains a hang detection and mitigation
mechanism, which prevents that a long delayed hrtimer interrupt causes a
continous retriggering of interrupts which prevent the system from making
progress. If a hang is detected then the timer hardware is programmed with
a certain delay into the future and a flag is set in the hrtimer cpu base
which prevents newly enqueued timers from reprogramming the timer hardware
prior to the chosen delay. The subsequent hrtimer interrupt after the delay
clears the flag and resumes normal operation.
If such a hang happens in the last hrtimer interrupt before a CPU is
unplugged then the hang_detected flag is set and stays that way when the
CPU is plugged in again. At that point the timer hardware is not armed and
it cannot be armed because the hang_detected flag is still active, so
nothing clears that flag. As a consequence the CPU does not receive hrtimer
interrupts and no timers expire on that CPU which results in RCU stalls and
other malfunctions.
Clear the flag along with some other less critical members of the hrtimer
cpu base to ensure starting from a clean state when a CPU is plugged in.
Thanks to Paul, Sebastian and Anna-Maria for their help to get down to the
root cause of that hard to reproduce heisenbug. Once understood it's
trivial and certainly justifies a brown paperbag.

Due to some unfortunate events, I have not been directly involved in
the x86 kernel patch flow for a while now. I have also not been able
to ramp back up by now like I had hoped to, and after reviewing what I
will need to work on both internally at Intel and elsewhere in the near
term, it is clear that I am not going to be able to ramp back up until
late 2018 at the very earliest.
It is not acceptable to not recognize that this load is currently
taken by Ingo and Thomas without my direct participation, so I mark
myself as R: (designated reviewer) rather than M: (maintainer) until
further notice. This is in fact recognizing the de facto situation
for the past few years.
I have obviously no intention of going away, and I will do everything
within my power to improve Linux on x86 and x86 for Linux. This,
however, puts credit where it is due and reflects a change of focus.
This patch also removes stale entries for portions of the x86
architecture which have not been maintained separately from arch/x86
for a long time. If there is a reason to re-introduce them then that

Sorry to send something essentially as late as possible (Friday after an
rc9), but we managed to get a mailing list for the RISC-V Linux port.
We've been using patches@groups.riscv.org for a while, but that list has
some problems (it's Google Groups and it's shared over all RISC-V
software projects). The new infaread.org list is much better. We just
got it on Wednesday but I used it a bit on Thursday to shake out all the
configuration problems and it appears to be in working order.
When I updated the mailing list I noticed that the MAINTAINERS file was
pointing to our github repo, but now that we have a kernel.org repo I'd
like to point to that instead so I changed that as well. We'll be
centralizing all RISC-V Linux related development here as that seems to
be the saner way to go about it.
I can understand if it's too late to get this into 4.15, but given that
it's not a code change I was hoping it'd still be OK. It would be nice
to have the new mailing list and git repo in the release tarballs so
when people start to find bugs they'll get to the right place.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
1) The per-network-namespace loopback device, and thus its namespace,
can have its teardown deferred for a long time if a kernel created
TCP socket closes and the namespace is exiting meanwhile. The kernel
keeps trying to finish the close sequence until it times out (which
takes quite some time).
Fix this by forcing the socket closed in this situation, from Dan
Streetman.
2) Fix regression where we're trying to invoke the update_pmtu method
on route types (in this case metadata tunnel routes) that don't
implement the dst_ops method. Fix from Nicolas Dichtel.
3) Fix long standing memory corruption issues in r8169 driver by
performing the chip statistics DMA programming more correctly. From
Francois Romieu.
4) Handle local broadcast sends over VRF routes properly, from David
Ahern.
5) Don't refire the DCCP CCID2 timer endlessly, otherwise the socket
can never be released. From Alexey Kodanev.
6) Set poll flags properly in VSOCK protocol layer, from Stefan
Hajnoczi.

select(2) with wfds but no rfds must return when the socket is shut down
by the peer. This way userspace notices socket activity and gets -EPIPE
from the next write(2).
Currently select(2) does not return for virtio-vsock when a SEND+RCV
shutdown packet is received. This is because vsock_poll() only sets
POLLOUT | POLLWRNORM for TCP_CLOSE, not the TCP_CLOSING state that the
socket is in when the shutdown is received.

ccid2_hc_tx_rto_expire() timer callback always restarts the timer
again and can run indefinitely (unless it is stopped outside), and after
commit 120e9dabaf ("dccp: defer ccid_hc_tx_delete() at dismantle time"),
which moved ccid_hc_tx_delete() (also includes sk_stop_timer()) from
dccp_destroy_sock() to sk_destruct(), this started to happen quite often.
The timer prevents releasing the socket, as a result, sk_destruct() won't
be called.

Now that we're upstream in Linux we've been able to make some
infrastructure changes so our port works a bit more like other ports.
Specifically:
* We now have a mailing list specific to the RISC-V Linux port, hosted
at lists.infreadead.org.
* We now have a kernel.org git tree where work on our port is
coordinated.
This patch changes the RISC-V maintainers entry to reflect these new
bits of infrastructure.

On a 5-level kernel, if a non-init mm has a top-level entry, it needs to
match init_mm's, but the vmalloc_fault() code skipped over the BUG_ON()
that would have checked it.
While we're at it, get rid of the rather confusing 4-level folded "pgd"
logic.

Neil Berrington reported a double-fault on a VM with 768GB of RAM that uses
large amounts of vmalloc space with PTI enabled.
The cause is that load_new_mm_cr3() was never fixed to take the 5-level pgd
folding code into account, so, on a 4-level kernel, the pgd synchronization
logic compiles away to exactly nothing.
Interestingly, the problem doesn't trigger with nopti. I assume this is
because the kernel is mapped with global pages if we boot with nopti. The
sequence of operations when we create a new task is that we first load its
mm while still running on the old stack (which crashes if the old stack is
unmapped in the new mm unless the TLB saves us), then we call
prepare_switch_to(), and then we switch to the new stack.
prepare_switch_to() pokes the new stack directly, which will populate the
mapping through vmalloc_fault(). I assume that we're getting lucky on
non-PTI systems -- the old stack's TLB entry stays alive long enough to
make it all the way through prepare_switch_to() and switch_to() so that we
make it to a valid stack.

There's a risk that a kernel which has full retpoline mitigations becomes
vulnerable when a module gets loaded that hasn't been compiled with the
right compiler or the right option.
To enable detection of that mismatch at module load time, add a module info
string "retpoline" at build time when the module was compiled with
retpoline support. This only covers compiled C source, but assembler source
or prebuilt object files are not checked.
If a retpoline enabled kernel detects a non retpoline protected module at
load time, print a warning and report it in the sysfs vulnerability file.
